“The Alpha Boys’ School is at the roots of the explosion of Jamaican music. There are only three countries whose popular music is played all over the world—American music, British music, and Jamaican music. We owe maximum respect and thanks to the Alpha Boys’ School for its contribution to this fact.”
– Chris Blackwell, founder of Island Records
Our signature event is the March for Music Education Scholarship Drive to be held in March 2020. In collaboration with Music Education Partners, the scholarship drive makes sure deserving students continue to benefit from the social, academic, vocational and community development opportunities that are all part of a music education.
